• In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of the Woodland Brown, Lopinga achine Scopoli, 1763 (Nymphalidae: Satyrinae) was determined to be 15,284 bp in size, including 37 typical mitochondrial genes and a control region. The gene content and arrangement of the mitogenome are identical to that of the majority of other sequenced nymphalids. All protein-coding genes (PCGs) are started with the conventional ATN codons, except for cox1 gene which is initiated by atypical CGA(R) codon. Nine PCGs use a typical stop codon of TAA, whereas the remaining PCGs (cox1, cox2, nad4, nad5) end with an incomplete T. The length of rrnL and rrnS are 1333 and 755 bp, respectively, separated by trnV. The phylogenetic tree inferred with Bayesian inference method reveals the phylogenetic relationships among the four tribes of Satyrinae analyzed as ((Satyrini + Melanitini) + (Elymniini + Amathusiini)). The newly sequenced species L. achine was clustered together with other two species of Parargina and formed a sister group with two species of the genus Lethe within Satyrini.
